Quick Glance: US Imposes Sanctions on Russian Metals at Exchanges
- The US and UK imposed new restrictions on trading Russian aluminum, copper, and nickel that will impact global metal markets, aiming to limit President Vladimir Putin’s ability to fund his war efforts.
- The rules ban the delivery of new supplies from Russia to the London Metal Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. While non-US entities can still buy physical Russian metals, the restrictions are expected to influence prices on the LME, a key benchmark in global contracts.
- The sanctions will also affect traders' handling of Russian metal, potentially leading to discounts compared to other sources. The move aims to reduce Russia's earnings while avoiding broad sanctions on crucial metals. Russian metals exports were valued at $25 billion in 2022 and $15 billion in 2023.
- The restrictions aim to prevent market disruptions seen in past sanctions and mark a significant shift in the metal supply chain dynamics. Palladium and titanium, major Russian-supplied metals, are not subject to these restrictions.

Quick Glance: UK Considers Providing Latest Laser Weapons to Ukraine
- Defense Secretary Grant Shapps suggests that prototypes of the latest laser weapons being developed in the UK could potentially be provided to Ukraine in the future to strengthen its air defense systems.

Quick Glance: Reviving a Decommissioned Nuclear Plant
- With a financial support of $1.52 billion from the US Department of Energy, an inactive nuclear power plant in Michigan may receive a new opportunity. If successful, this would mark the first instance of a closed nuclear power plant reopening in the US.
- After 50 years of operation, the Palisades nuclear power plant was decommissioned in 2022. The process of reopening presents technical, administrative, and regulatory challenges. However, the new owners have been working on the plans for years, which facilitates the potential restart.
- Securing funding and approvals is crucial for the revival of the nuclear power plant. State support and a substantial federal loan are intended to cover the necessary repairs and upgrades. Yet, regulatory approval remains a significant hurdle in the reopening process.
- In the event of approval, Palisades aims to operate until at least 2051. The growing support for nuclear energy and increased financing make older facilities more profitable. Nevertheless, a wave of reopenings for other decommissioned nuclear plants in the US is unlikely.
